I’m so using this at the Club

This kid is a freaking natural. He’s totally goofy, and no doubt his hipster brother is teaching him how to be whitecrunk… but for a little ginger, he’s got a hell of a lot of rhythm. Song is Boom Boom Pow, but the Black Eyed Peas, who just might have an album that doesn’t suck.

A wee bit of datamoshing

04.09.2009 @ 12:08 PM in Technology

Datamoshing is the technique of purposefully removing keyframes from videos so that compression artifacts appear. Its pretty uncontrollable unless you really get the science, but most of the time the outcome is pretty sweet.

While the Charlift Video for “Evident Utensil” was the first all-moshing-all-the-time music video, Kanye did his thing and made it “popular” with “Welcome to The Hearbreak…”


KANYE WEST “Welcome To Heartbreak” Directed by Nabil

A lot of the visuals I throw  at the club are glitchy and distorted… its my style, and i’ve ammassed a nice library of glips (glitchy clips). I don’t have anything datamoshed, but I’m starting to learn the technique so that I can use it at Marcella. The below is a first test of the technique… nothing purposed just a few clips moshed.

Thunderheist: Nothin’ To Step To [Video]

I was turned onto Thunderheist when Brodie  (Huw’s Furry Loverboy) dropped me a few tracks… I love sexy-mess-quasi-ghetto-chic MC/songtresses and Isis is that girl. Isis may be the Thunder, but the Heist is DJ GrahamZilla who steals the ground from under your feet with his sweet electro grooves. Thunderheist’s debut self title drops like right fucking now, so go get it [cd, mp3, vinyl]

The Bloody Beetroots are my superheroes of Electro. Add a little Steve Aoki, some slow-mo HD cinematography, and a whole bunch of hipsters…  have a good time.

I found this video this morning and I don’t know much about it except its directed by Oren Lavie and freakin amazing. All stop-motion, with clothing for props.

Video: Aer OBAMA

01.20.2009 @ 10:43 AM in Culture

Today’s the day, an ObamaNation starts in just a little bit. I’m sure everyone is glued to live coverage of the Inauguration, so I won’t say much, but here is a video to help get the party started:


Daft Punk vs. Adam Freeland – “Aer OBAMA” from Gold Greendot on Vimeo.

The following is a mixed-media stop motion music video and celebration commemorating the election and inauguration of Barack Obama as the forty-fourth president of these United States. Audibly showcasing Adam Freeland’s remix of Daft Punk’s “Aerodynamic” and the imaginative stylings of forward thinking toy artists Dalek, Bill McMullen and Kubrick to name just a few. Independently animated and directed by the progressive minds of the directing team GOLD, the piece is a labor of love that invites everyone to join in or create their own celebration this coming Tuesday January the 20th.

I can’t think of anything more awesome than Daft Punk, Vinyl, and Obama mixed together.

Oh this is..? This is broken?

Video: Adam Kesher – “Local Girl”

Now i love me some electro, but I also love distortion. Adam Kesher is from France, and his style of garage rock sounds a lot like Bloc Party without all the studio touchups (I still love you Kele!). Speaking of Electro, I first heard of Kesher when I came across the Strip Steve Remix to his “Irene.” There is just something gritty and loverly about Adam Kesher, and his video for “Local Girl” will make you want to dig a little deeper. I suggest heavily that you buy all of his music from Amazon (yes iTunes just went all DRM-free, but Amazon doesn’t cram that gnarly aac format in your face and it’s .89 cents a song as opposed to .99 for iTunes).

Why you shouldn’t put a Pickle Jar up your bum

I suppose I’m a bit of a bastard for this, but I’m a little too desensitized to sick shit to make a good reaction video. SO… I enlisted the help of Angel and his friends to watch it for me. I sorta fubar’d and didn’t record the reaction the first time, but Demarkis came home later and the poor guy was suckered into watching the worst out of all the “X guy(s)/girl(s) X cup(s)” videos so far. Once again, I will not link to this, but I found it over at a little site called efuckt. Its called “1 guy 1 cup” and its really frickin’ terrible.

Android Tip: Flickr Mobile updates interface and lets the G1 play video

12.05.2008 @ 4:25 AM in Technology

One of the best things about Android using a Webkit browser is that we get to share in the same mobile web improvements as the iPhone. Flickr updated their m.flickr.com site yesterday, making it play really nice with Webkit and other highend mobile browsers (Fennic, Opera). The new interface is smooth, quick, and easy to use. You can access you profile information like your secret upload email addy, leave comments, view photo stats, and even modify your own uploads’ titles and descriptions. Video also plays on mobile flickr, but only works for iPhone and iPod Touch, or so they say

Video playback is currently limited to the Apple iPhone/iPod Touch, but support for more devices will follow as soon as possible.

sure looks like it plays to me…
